jayjaycali reacted to andrewlawrence in *Barcelona - Sauna Thermas - It only got better!
So my trip finished. I went to Thermas for three days Tue, Wed, and Thu in the hot week of July 2026. 3/4pm to 7/8pm.
In terms of being busy, Tuesday was the most quiet, but still had a decent selection of good-looking providers. At 5-6pm there were around 15-20 providers and the same number of clients. Wednesday was by far the most crowded day among these days, with multiple hot providers to choose from. Easily 30+ providers. Many clients too. Thursday was better than Tuesday, but cannot be as busy and bustling as Wednesday.
In terms of the providers, I was pleasantly surprised! they are absolutely gorgeous! A lot of them are very fit or muscular, masculine horny young men parading around talking to clients and showing off their impressive "manhood". No feminine providers . Most of them have nice long thick fat gorgeous manhood that can get hard within split second! They're quite easy going . Some would go around flashing or swinging their manhood. Some would give you a little preview of it. Some would let you touch and rub it. Basically look, touch, and try before anything further is the best thing in here that the traditional platforms like RMen or Hqz can't offer. I've met so many guys on RM that were essentially catfishes or couldn't get hard (or maybe I wasn't attractive enough who knows) etc. I was able to avoid all these problems visiting here.
Some memorable booking experiences. I booked one super sexy fit Venezuelan / Dominican guy whose face somewhat bears a resemblance to Wentworth Miller - only more handsome IMO, and whose passion and force in our session was borderline aggressive. I appreciated his style, I had no problem with it, but he may run into trouble with other clients for it. Couldn't give him advice as I don't know any word he speaks. Then there was another super muscular Brazillian gentleman with thick shouders , pecs and a big thick fat tool. Still got horny thinking about how heavenly it felt sticking your mouth on his mountain of pecs and nipples.
An overwhelming majority of providers are Latinos (Brazil, Venezuela, Dominican Republic). Some are black. Didn't see any local Barcelonian providers. If you were primarily looking for white Caucasian men / daddies / bears, you'd be disappointed. This is Tue Wed Thu, not sure about weekends. During my three days I only saw 1. one tall Russian gentleman that I booked a session once. He has very slim body with beautiful face, foxy mesmerising eyes and gorgeous hair (think David Gandy but slimmer) - totally can be a cover model for any magazines or shows. 2. One middle-aged Romanian who's probably drug addicted. and 3. two sexy Greek providers with big tools who are Hispanic not scandinavian white. Clients, however, are predominantly Caucasians aged 60+, probably not the Caucasians you'd be looking for. Occassionally there's a client or two worth landing your eyes on, but that's about it.
Pricing-wise, I never asked the providers how much they'd charge, but I followed the advice here and proposed either 50 or 60 EUR for a session. In total I had fun with approx 7 providers there and they accepted this pricing instantly - no one ever asked for more. Very good price for intimate service.
In terms of cleanliness, Thermas doesn't disappoint. Staff regularly cleaned the rooms and bathrooms.
Looking into future, sincerely hope Thermas will always be there for people to come and enjoy the excellent service of gorgeous men especially those from Latin or African backgrounds. But to me its existence is not without a threat. Most independent escorts in Barcelona knows about Thermas and while Thermas has kept their pricing down to more competive levels, I don't think they are very happy with it and some may have reported it already...
Can't wait to visit Thermas next year for a full week!

jayjaycali reacted to wsc in Dollar Tree announces first price hike in 35 years! 25% increase!
I've never been to a Dollar Tree or a Dollar General; there are none my Burberry or Neiman-Marcus. But I have, out of curiosity, been to a Tuesday Morning, reported to be a step or two down from the Dollar stores.
As I walked around, I thought it was a rummage sale and saw nothing I either needed or wanted. Also, because I was there on a Wednesday afternoon, I'm not sure I could have bought anything anyway.
I did hear in an on-line testimonial how popular it is among those of a certain type. One woman praised their informality, saying, You don't have to get all dressed-up to go there like you do for Walmart.
I shiver as I shudder.

jayjaycali reacted to Gr3gbonsoir in Montréal trip report (and first post)
The signs are still there and now available in Spanish too!
You can always complain to management that I charge 25$/3 minutes. In fact whoever wants to complain I will gladly lead you to management with your complaint.
They are already aware of my price. My body, my rules, 25$/3 minutes.
If you don't want to pay that price you may simply just GO WITH SOMEONE ELSE WHO CHARGES 20$. There are at least 9 dancers at stock at a time and dancers at Campus, Diamant Rouge who charge 20$!
As well as not knowing how to speak in the first person, Bozo doesn't know how to stop thinking about me. No wonder he still took 2 DANCES despite not agreeing with my rules.

jayjaycali reacted to Gr3gbonsoir in Montréal trip report (and first post)
Alright Bozo,
I know for a fact that all the songs on the backroom playlist are 3 minutes to 3:15 long. I asked management who confirmed that for me. As other commenters have stated, some dancers are dishonest with the number of songs.
With the timer you ALWAYS know how long a dance is and how many songs it has been (divide by 3). As some have stated dancers have previously lied about how many songs have passed. I like to make a link of trust with my clients by being full transparent with my timer.
If you will "never again" get a dance with me that saves me the stress of someone who doesn't agree with my rules because I will not be changing them.
Enjoy the other dancers that are not "as attractive" and who have previously lied about how many songs it has been.
As for everybody else, I look forward to giving you a beautiful and unforgettable experience in the backrooms at stock bar for 25$ CAD/3 minutes

jayjaycali reacted to Luvbigmusc in What is MONSTER like on a Saturday night?
I went to the Spunk/The Monster pre-Pride event on Thursday, where they billed that 40+ go-go dancers would be there. I got there a little before 11PM. The place really started filling up around 11:30PM. There were certainly a lot of dancers, probably around close to that number, but it didn't seem like much more than a regular busy night.
The Monster continues to be the best at not only a large number, but a large variety of men. From twinks, to twunks, to muscular guys; I truly think there's something for everyone. I like muscular guys myself, and Carlo and another Dominican guy with super short hair and the most boulder shoulders you'll ever see, fit the bill. I wish bodybuilders still would come to these kind of events, but I think those days are over.
The venue itself hasn't changed, and I enjoy it. Great bar that's not horribly overpriced, really good DJ, iPads counting the time in the private rooms, and drag queens sprinkled in the mix. There were some ladies there, but they weren't obnoxious, which was nice. Overall, a really nice evening.

I think escorts are an easy target because they elicit little sympathy from the public when they're caught.
I think milo is a fairly harmless, naive person, excited about an awards show who was then subject to institutionalized and professional interrogation techniques by people who know the book in and out.
I think a kinder system would have told him he needs to seek a business meetings visa for the show or similar, and issue a stern warning about doing any work, such as content creation without authorization, before re-trying an entry. I think treating him with this type of scrutiny with the purpose to elicit a confession to obtain a 10 year ban is cruel.
I think it wasn't that long ago that the idea of a government agent scrolling through your private DMs, photos, and bank statements without a warrant was treated as a dystopian nightmare.

jayjaycali reacted to KeepItReal in I-bonds
Be careful in dispensing financial advice - everyone's situation is different. It may be one of the best options for you, but saying it is the best (absolute statement) is overreaching. In general, I bonds are not suitable as a primary emergency fund - you just can't get your hands on the money in a moment's notice...can take up to 3 days even if your accounts are electronically connected.

jayjaycali reacted to midtownguy in Campus Lately
Great timing...I just left there! Here for Spring Break to get away from the city. I wasn't going to go, the city is pretty dead right now. I saw a drag show at Mado two nights before that was fun. Tonight I was walking around and decided to stop in for nostalgia's sake. I had a great time. Wasn't too crowded on a Thursday but there were enough people to not be awkward, and there were lots of dancers...all different types, and all that approached me were friendly. I do get tired of the introductions then the inevitable "no thank you," but that's the way it works. Its better when they approach you rather than the ones that stand off and wait for you to approach them.
I had lap dances with Damon and Caramello. Both were very sexy and fun. Damon, a muscle boy who had a little extra on top of the muscles, which I love, approached me when I first arrived and patiently waited until I was ready. He was very good with his body in the back...I don't know how much to say here but there was plenty of touching. Caramello had such a great dance on stage that I just wanted to tip him when he came back out. I kinda thought he might be only into women...or regulars...because he was ripped, and knew how to move etc. But he was friendly, we chatted for a bit...he told me I needed to be introduced to Brazil and took me to the back. So fun...so sexy. What a body! And he made me feel like he was into it...into me, which Damon did as well. Not always the case. Halfway through the 2nd song he pulled his shoes off and stood up on the bench and you can use your imagination for the rest. They both flexed for me a few times and the arms...the arms!
I don't always check this for messages, but if you DM me I'll try to answer. Glad to know its still a good time at Campus. Oh, and cover was $8. Maybe more on weekends?

jayjaycali reacted to jeffla in Favorite club experience!
LOL. I had a feeling someone was going to ask me to expand on the Campus once I mentioned it! I was going to save that for another day, but oh well... since you asked, and I'm still up, I'll tell you about that place.
The Campus was in a seedier area of San Francisco, not nearly as polished or clean like the Nob. (I think it was called the Tenderloin.) But it had a great group of young strippers, all kinds, and lots more excitement to be had.
The Campus had three floors, the top being for strippers only... then the main floor with a theater and stage structurally like the Nob (but again, no velvet curtains or its far more comfy chairs)... as well as a hallway in front and the stripper schedule on a board next to photos of each stripper, plus the ticket booth in the very front... and then a basement that had, among other things, a small maze, an arena where they had other smaller (but more intimate) shows, and a shower room with a wooden door and a latch and a shower that likely didn't work, lol.
Most of the fun was to be had in the arena and the shower room. The arena was constructed with perhaps 3-4 wooden steps in a semi-circle, where you can sit on the step or climb it to get to the next... and a small open area on the floor in the center and in the front. Strippers would strip in the small area in front, then go guy to guy in the arena, where you'd see many of the patrons giving the strippers blowjobs right there, one after another. Tempting as it may have been, that's a little too risque for me... not to mention, I was still relatively inexperienced back then, my Nob Hill "education" notwithstanding. But it was definitely hot to watch. Sometimes, the stripper would play with your cock too if you had it out in the open, something that, at that point, I was very comfortable in doing.
The shower room was on the other side, with some sofas outside of it. You'd wait your turn, though guys often stood next to the door to the shower room as it didn't close fully, so you could sometimes see what was going on through the slight opening, giving the whole experience some extra voyeuristic heat. As I recall it was $10 then, which you'd give to the stripper when it was your turn in the shower room, and you'd get maybe five minutes for some private interaction. At the very least, he'd jack you, but you could suck him, a few might suck you, and sometimes you could really get into a hot kissing scene too. I remember a couple really cute strippers I enjoyed interacting with, including one Latin kid, my age, who was really attractive and had that smile that always gets me... and was an amazing kisser. An instant crush for me. I saw him a couple times when I visited across some months, and he would recognize me and smile as he took me into his arms and began making out with me like a long-lost lover each time.
What made the Campus even more fun is that they later added what everyone of course hoped for: two-man shows a couple times daily, a five-man show on weekends, and then four times a year, a 20-man show... that weren't so much strip shows as they were all-out sex shows.
So for the two-man shows, which took place in the arena, the two strippers would start by stripping, making out with each other, blowing each other while everyone watched; then they'd go guy to guy and offer their cocks for each guy to play with and/or suck. Patrons would be jacking openly, and everyone would be celebrating male camaraderie at its finest and having a grand old time.
Now that I was several months into my strip club adventures, and a bit more experienced (but still never had a boyfriend and was closeted in my own life at that point), I welcomed the boundaries getting pushed, as new excitement kept everything so thrilling. So when I heard about the 20-man shows, that same nervous sexual adrenaline rush built within me instantly, and I knew I had to go experience that.
Thankfully, I got to the Campus early enough because they sold-out shortly after. It would've been a massive bummer to have flown to SF only to not be able to enter! The place was packed.
I think the show was around 8pm, so as the start time approached, everyone made their way to the main theater. It was always a bit awkward grabbing a seat between two guys you don't know—especially as they’re likely going to be jacking off next to you as you may be doing too—but most guys were pretty respectful, keeping their hands to themselves unless otherwise invited. I don’t remember the guy to my left, but I do remember the guy to my right who was relatively cute, Latin or maybe Middle Eastern, probably a bit younger than me. He sorta reminded me of myself when I first began as he seemed excited but tentative, keeping his pants zipped at this point in time.... as did I when the show began. That said, it didn't take long for me to see my neighbor rubbing himself through his pants, and I wondered if he'd be able to resist pulling his dick out like the rest of us. Time would tell.
So, the way the 20-man show worked is that the announcer would introduce 5 strippers at a time. They'd come out on stage, strip, start jacking, and then kiss and/or go down on each other on the stage.
Cocks everywhere in the audience would be getting pulled out as you could feel the sexual heat in the room rising as if the physical temperature were literally getting hotter. Like I said, by this point in my journey, I had no hesitation pulling my dick out too, but I was conscious of the kid next to me who didn't yet pull his out... so I didn't whip mine out yet either, hard as we both obviously were.
After a handful of minutes, the five strippers on stage would start making their way into the audience, many of whom would openly suck the strippers' cocks, while strippers made out with each other, or played with the audience's cocks as well or sucked each's cocks in rows with the audience or in the aisles. And then the next group of five would be introduced and come out, and proceed to strip and have sex with each other on stage. Then, they'd join the other five in the audience as the next five came out, and this would continue until all twenty horny, naked, erect strippers were everywhere amongst the audience, most of whom were openly jacking. It was as crazy as it was so hot to be a part of.
What was fantastic is that unlike my early days at the Nob (as described above), when I'd wait for one stripper to make his way through dozens of guys to get to me, at the 20-man show I literally had a stripper in front of me or within an arm’s reach more often than not for most of the show.
Still, it wasn't until a group of five strippers came out with my Latin crush in it that my heart started pounding even faster. I was curious how eagerly he'd have sex with the other strippers, as I never saw him interact with others. On stage, he got blown by one of them, but seemed to be going through the motions (or so I imagined, as I really wanted to believe that I was the one he truly wanted lol....).
Meanwhile, other strippers would give me and my buddy to my right lap dances, and we’d be stroking cock after cock after cock.... while everyone was just having the hottest time with the music pulsating. And the strippers clearly loved the attention... and the sex. But all this was a blur, for my eyes were really focused on two people: My neighbor to my right and my Latin crush.
I kept checking out my young neighbor who was really excited and loving feeling all the guys and stroking them, and he kept checking me out too. It’s like we were thinking the same thing, wondering who would be first.
Finally, as we looked at each other, I decided to be more of a mentor (lol--I still was in the closet!), and took the first step of pulling my dick out, loving that he was watching me as I did... at which point, he immediately unzipped and pulled his cock out too as he watched me watch him. I loved how aware we were of each other's cock-visibility status, lol, and how we were clearly having fun together.
Plus, that made the strippers even more interactive with us, as they'd play with both our dicks. And we also got a lot more love from the strippers likely due to our age. I remember one stripper asking us if we were boyfriends, lol. Even though we said no, he urged us to play with each other, so we stroked each other, which seemed to please the stripper as he told us it was hot and invited us to stroke him too, which we did together.
Finally, my stripper crush, the Latin kid I love kissing, made his way to me and flashed that engaging smile of his I loved, and sat on my lap and immediately started making out with me passionately. I remember my new friend next to me watching us (I imagined with envy), which I really loved, and at one point my friend reached over and jacked my crush as well. I was okay sharing my crush with my new friend lol, but I wouldn’t have liked it if someone else did that uninvited! Still, my crush kept his tongue firmly in my mouth, and I hadn't seen him kissing anyone else... so I felt special, in my own imagination at least!
Meanwhile, another stripper joined the three of us and stood before my new friend, and egged my crush to give his cock some attention. So my crush turned and proceeded to suck the stripper right in front of our faces while still seated on my lap. I have to confess, I felt a pang of jealousy watching my future husband sucking this stripper's cock. At a certain point, my crush motioned for me to join him and taste his friend's cock with him, which was thoughtful, but while I made an exception for mouth-to-mouth action with my crush and sorta loved the idea of both our mouths on a cock together, I couldn't help but think of all the other patrons' mouths that were likely wrapped around that stripper's cock in the minutes before….
So instead, I said I thought my friend to my right was feeling left out, at which point this once seemingly shy tentative kid next to me eagerly took that stripper's entire cock in his mouth, giving him an impressively deep and passionate blowjob, while my crush proceeded to kiss me more and rub his hard dick against mine.
Alas, all good things come to an end, and my crush had to move on to the others but whispered to me to find him afterwards, parting with the sweetest smile.
This was one of the hottest events I had ever attended at these clubs. Everyone was having a great time. Cum started flying all about as some of the strippers exploded in aisles and guys in the audience had orgasms, shooting loads onto back of seats or wherever. And my new friend couldn't hold back any more and finally came in his seat. He quickly zipped up and left (it was a short friendship lol), and not long afterwards, the show came to an end, at which point some of the strippers went downstairs to continue working for tips.
I hadn't yet cum and went to find my crush, who was downstairs already and immediately upon seeing me pulled me to the side of the arena and started kissing me in front of everyone. He then unzipped me and pulled my pants down and started sucking me as patrons and other strippers jacked off watching us if not cheering us on. I remember he'd stand up again to make out with me some more, then go back to sucking my cock. We both finally came together, at which point I think we even got some applause lol. That was the last time I saw my crush. He was a hot time all on his own, but with the 20-man show this was definitely one of the hottest times I'll ever have.
Man, I wish I could relive these experiences somewhere, some day again!
I did see clips of patrons getting it on with strippers at a strip club in Mexico called Cabinas Funny. It reminds me a lot of the Campus, though it's even smaller. Still, it's hot; the patrons aren't bad-looking either. But much as I would love to relive this experience one more time by going there, the fact they're on the Internet without their faces blurred in most videos confirms, unfortunately, that just isn't going to happen. But the clips sure make a visit tempting.
So, hot massage parlors are probably my limitation for now, for illicit as the fun can be, at least we can be more discreet there.
Hey, @Claym, I hope I didn't let you down with the read.

Not much more to the story. We were young and everything happens a lot faster back then 😉. I do remember after fooling around we went back into the club so he could get his bag. Lights were full on and he was still beautiful. We exchanged numbers, but never saw each other again. But I'll never forget it.
There were other nights I went to this club when they had dancers. I remember the lady who checked id's just knew I was underaged and would always say "be careful in there. Don't let anyone buy you a drink". Good advice. Most guys in there were in their 30's and I was fresh meet.
There was one dancer who would come and he was super straight. But I managed to talk him up and he invited me to an after bars party. He was there to pick up girls, but he needed to bring beer to the party. He was 19 or 20. Well, I told him I'd buy a 6pack for him if he let me blow him. He agreed, but he said he didn't want to cum since he wanted to score that night with the ladies. So outside of this house, we went against the back wall and I went at it. He kept saying, "ok, ok, that's enough, you are going to make me ... aw, fuck it" and shot his load. Totally worth a six pack of bud light.

Bullet point two in the reply I think was worth the irony.
You're argument indeed makes a large assumption on how I used the prompt. Then it use 'likely' as a word to pretend to claim some reasonable threshold or statistics to back it up to make it sound grounded
The argument makes a blanket claim: discussion with AI cannot catch logical fallacies or refine arguments or grammar and paint is as 'outsourcing thinking' instead in a blanket fashion before that's even established
The argument sneaks in 'inconvenient truth' as though the argument was true. To make the argument a 'valid point' it's better to refute the rebuttal and continue, claiming its a 'valid point' doesn't suddenly make it so.
Sorry but I'll try and read replies to hear you out but I will have to try and decline responding as much as I might want to since for me it's likely more aggravation than I should let it give me. Tc.

The logic in that reply falls flat for a few reasons:
It’s a False Dichotomy: The argument implies that because female sex workers statistically face massive scrutiny at international borders, a gay traveler cannot be experiencing selective enforcement. In reality, border profiling isn't a zero-sum game; multiple demographics can face distinct, systemic biases at the same time. The "AI Weapon" Fallacy: Using a surface-level AI search summary as a definitive, unassailable legal source to dismiss someone's lived experience or a specific case study is incredibly weak debate etiquette. Ignoring the Trigger: The original poster ("jayjaycali") was highlighting that the enforcement became active the second officers focused on the traveler's presentation. Border agents exercise immense subjective discretion, and behavioral or aesthetic profiling happens constantly, regardless of macro-demographic trends. It’s a frustrating brand of online argument where nuance goes to die.

Sadly, history is repeating itself. The anti-bias toward anything not white and "normal" is under assault. Those living on the coasts are more insulated from it but it's still prevalent when the tone is set at the top levels of government. The torchbearers happy embrace the chest and brow beating wherever they may be. Once gay marriage became legal, I thought the country could never go back to those prior days. But here we are. Trans phobia is being used as a bludgeon to attack everyone's rights. I hope history will look back on this period as a blimp and revert back where middle America just shrugs on socially divisive issues. Live and let live.
Until then, you do have to be careful what is on your phone when you travel.

Just going to roll this little grenade.
Some of the holier than thou - lack of empathy - the law is the law types - if you are on the other side of the transaction, you can just as easily fall into this detention trap as well. Just because we have reached a certain age with some greying hair won’t matter a bit if some drunk on power border official in the US decides it’s time to ruin / embarrass a gay man’s life. Some AI system has finally linked your signal/telegram chat to your cell phone or home wifi IP address, flagging your identity as engaged with SW’rs too.
At this point in my life, I know I stand with SW’ers because I’m part of their community. A good number of my fellow men of a certain age have come into this life late in life, and don’t have the experiences of being called a f@ggot while leaving a gay bar in their teens or 20s. Once you realize you’re part of the same marginalized community, you’ll be better prepared to deal with indignities that will be coming our way should these abuses of power continue.
Your age, net worth, social status, what you think are your rights in the comfort of your own home won’t matter when you face a windowless room and no access to your smart phone or legal counsel. Add to this if you are detained on unrelated business travel or with family, you just want to continue on with your trip, convincing yourself you can explain away there was a case of mistaken identity etc.
Y’all better start extending some grace and flexing our collective privilege to refocus efforts on actual non-consensual / violent crime rather than some pissant fishing expeditions for some power tripping officers punching downwards. Today, it’s some twink, fem boy, circuit queen. Tomorrow it can just as easily be embarrassing / inconveniencing the <insert your insecurity about your age / hiring status / weight etc here> because some border agent/ police officer felt like it.
